The short answer is, yes. When the subdivision was built, conservation guidelines dictated that water runoff from the entire subdivision couldnt be any faster after construction than before. To address this, the developer engineered three large catch ponds, which hold runoff. These catch ponds allow the land to absorb much of the water and meter the outflow. These catch ponds are on Trust land. The Trust is responsible to maintain them. All of these structures are passive; i.e., pipes, gravel, etc. However, eventually, they silt up with runoff although they were originally engineered with a 20 to 30 year expected lifecycle. PMOST is liable to maintain these and fix them when they fail. • People are using the open space to drive powered off-road vehicles like ATVs, motorcycles, snowmobiles, etc.
